04 The picture above shows the
full depth of the cave - it is not spectacular as caves go except that is
associated with St Ninian and pilgrimages.
Around the mouth of the cave pilgrims leave crosses such as the one made
of drift wood in the first picture below. Pebbles from the beach are also
left with messages on them on any available ledge. Ancient crosses which
were in this cave are now in the museum at Whithorn.
The third picture shows the view from inside the cave back along the beach.
Our route now takes us that way (easward) up onto the cliff at the far end
of the beach.
